 The day  we met
 Frozen I held  my breath
 Right from the start
 I knew that I'd found  a home  for my
Heart  beats fast
 Colors and promises
 How to be brave
 How can I love  when I'm  afraid  to fall
 But watching you stand  alone
  *  -once
 All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
 One step clo--ser
I  have died everyday waiting for  you
Darling  don't be afraid I  have loved  you
 For a thousand  years
 I love you for a thousand more
 -once
Time  stands still
 Beauty in all  she is
 I will be brave
 I will not let  anything take  away
 What's standing in front  of me
 Every breath
 Every hour  has come  to this
   -once
 One step clo--ser
I  have died everyday waiting for  you
Darling  don't be afraid I  have loved  you
 For a thousand  years
 I love you for a thousand more
'nd  all along I believed I  would find  you
Time  has brought your heart to me
I  have loved  you for a thousand  years
 I'll love you for a thousand more
 I'll love you for a thousand more
................-  *once
 One step clo--ser
 (single strums or soft strummimg/picking)
I  have died everyday waiting for  you
Darling  don't be afraid I  have loved  you
 For a thousand  years
 I love you for a thousand more
And  all along I believed I  would find  you
Time  has brought your heart to me
I  have loved  you for a thousand  years
   -once
 I'll love you for a thousand more
.................  -once
 Have fun and RATE!
